Toilet chip repair at your home in Riber
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What else we do in Riber
What affects the price in Riber
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Landlord and trade work in Riber
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Riber as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
